RSS161 Atlas Copco has launched its new Hurricane B4-41/1000 CE booster compressor, which it says offers advanced operational, safety and maintenance features that result in low downtime.

“Drilling for oil, gas, water and geothermal energy are critical operations where there is little margin, or tolerance, for booster failure and downtime. Now Atlas Copco has introduced a CE-compliant booster compressor that is specially designed to provide maximum reliability in all conditions,” said the company.

The new Hurricane B4-41/1000 CE booster at INTERMAT has a capacity of 660litres/second (4m³/min) at a maximum discharge pressure of 69bar with a suction pressure of 24bar.
The 257 John Deere 4045 Power Tech diesel engine provides increased flows and pressures for improved borehole drilling.

    Caterpillar Paving is introducing its AP1000E and AP1055E pavers, which replaced the earlier D-Series machines. The machines are said to be able to place smooth mats and deliver high-production as well as redirecting fumes away from operators. The AP1000E is a wheeled model while the AP1055E is the tracked version of the same basic machine. Productivity is provided in part through the heavy-duty screed designs offered, with customers able to choose between the AS2302C, AS3301C, AS4251C and AS4252C.

    Atlas Copco is introducing mobile electric Variable Speed Drive (VSD) air compressors to its E-Air range. These electric compressors are said to suit working in a low emission zone. The absence of diesel emissions, combined with the low noise levels (as low as 61dB(A)), suits the E-Air range for underground applications like tunnelling, as air ventilation is a part of their running costs. While the fixed-speed electric compressor needs a start-up current peak, the VSD electric range offers versatility. Ef
